Angela and Alex Manos continue with their in-depth conversation and in this episode focus on modern psychedelics and how it offers an opportunity to assess trauma from a completely different perspective.
Your mind and emotions are intrinsically connected and Alex explains why the most important aspects of your health are not physically based but mind-based and how modern psychedelics can bring the opportunities to address and process life events allowing any individual to move forward.
 
KEY TAKEAWAYS

A lot of us suppress our emotions as part of conditioning in today’s society
We all have storms, emotions and energy within us that is contributing to our resiliency and health.
The psychedelic session made me feel like I was out of my body but in the cosmos somewhere.
I experienced a disconnection that helped me to appreciate the strong connections I have in my life, the psychedelic experience helped me to see the real connections in my life.
It’s a dissolution of yourself and having no boundaries, you are energy, everything and everyone.
We are all from the same place, whatever you want to call that place and we are a projection, wearing a mask and playing a role that is placed upon us by society.
The most important parts of health are not physically based but mind-based. When there is trauma in a life story it can manifest as a physical illness further on in life.
Your mind and emotions are interconnected.
Trauma is energy that wasn’t discharged at the time of the event and subsequently becomes stored in the nervous system of the body. To achieve an equilibrium the body needs to discharge the energy
Modern psychedelics is about assessing trauma from a completely different perspective.
